Bollywood wants to remake "Phone Booth"

[Tweek]

I would SO watch this.


No idea if this is old news.
I was looking up "The Others" Bollywood remake and got this.

LOL. I think it's great that american movies are being remade in asia now.

"Saif’s phone is jammed
Saif Ali Khan alone has been approached by three to four filmmakers with offers to act in a desi version of the Hollywood flick, Phone Booth. The Colin Farrell starrer seems to have inspired half of Bollywood to remake it in Hindi. And Saif seems to be the favourite choice of several of those who are contemplating dishing out a rehashed version of the English hit. Wonder how many Hindi copies of the English film we will ultimately have, but for the present, Saif’s phone lines are jammed because of the Phone Booth offers!"

ive never heard of this, i also think its good american movies are being remade in asia although i doubt ill watch it.

is this gonna be a typical dancing and singing version with chickens being thrown around or a serious remake?

Like the above thread replies already mentioned, WHY?
But still i'd LOVE to see the main character tied up with the caller on the other line and you see a crowd of ppl breaking out into a dance number in the backround. :D

Hmmmm...........

Well if Aishwarya Rai is in it (maybe as the Katie Holmes character), then I'll definately check it out.

Im indian and i hate bollywood movies! Its a discrace to my culture! 80% of the movies are all romantic type of movies and all they do is sing and dance. pshhhhh

Like the above thread replies already mentioned, WHY?

Because if Hollywood can do remakes of foreign movies why can't they remake our movies?

lol

[outsyder]

Well, I'm sure they'll go ahead. It's not like the fact that they're ripping off someone else's ideas have stopped them before.:rolleyes:

[Moviefan02000]

Wow, never heard of Bollywood...they remake our movies or something? This is an awful idea, but of course, I won't be seeing this since it won't even be released here probably, so I don't really care.

I heard the song and dance scene at the end was going to be pretty good.;)

Of all the films put out in the US re-doing something like Phone Booth, i'd LOOOOOOVE to see their take on it. :D

I'd much rather watch the Bollywood remake of Reservoir Dogs, i can't remember what its called tho

[Patrick Bateman]

I believe the bollywood version of Reservoir Dogs, is called "Kaante".....

Might be wrong about that.
